remained indoors to-day on account of a
heavy rain. DIR. Bramann. first assistant
to DR.. Bergman, arrived at San Reno to-
day. He is the surgeon of
approved skill mentioned as having
been sent by the Emperor to watch the sud-
den recurrence of the swelling which en-
dangers the Crown Princes life. He is
famous for the sureness of his hand in per-
forming tracheotomy. He performs most
of the operations of this kind in Berlin,
where there are 400 cases yearly.
The Motnhen WOchenSchriG says DIR.
Beigmann and DR.. Gerhardt regard the
time as inopportune to reply to the official
statement Of DR.. Mackenzie This agrees
with the advice of the official press, which
deprecates dispute at the bedside of a
patient upon topic unfit for the public
forum.
The anti-tobacconists are making
capital out of the erroneous re-
port that the Crown Princes malady
is the result of excessive smoking. He
smokes very httle only occasionally cigar
cite or mild cigar. During his campaign he
used sometimes to smoke pipe with a
Porcelain bowl, painted by the Crown
Princess. The malady is traceable to heredS
tary predisposition. His grandmother,
Queen Louise, died from cancerous tumors
on her lungs. DR.. Mackenzie will return to
San Reno next week

The Carolina, Knoxville and Western
Road Apt to Be Built.

ROAD Apt TO be 6ullU
AUGUSTA, GA, Nov. 19.-The stock
holders of the Georgia Construction Com
pany met to-day to consider the question of
accepting the contract offered by the East
Carolina, Knoxville and Western rail
road to complete that line. The road in
question is to connect Greenville, S. c., with
Knoxville, Tenn, and will, when completed
to the latter point, be extended southwark
either to Augusta or Port Royal, the latter
question to depend upon the route subscrip-
tlons. 1t was unanimously decided to ac-
cept the contract (which is not yet made
public provided Greenville will subscribe
5000, 900.
One hundred and fifty miles of their road
has already been graded beginning at the
Knoxville end Of the line. 1t is belived that
Greenville will not hesitate to do her part,
and do it quickly, and it is therefore not
improbable that the road will be built at
once. Should Port Royal be fixed upon as
theSouthern terminal as appears most likely,
the latter port, and Beaufort will lie vastly
benefited, besides the many towns in Caro-
lima through which the road will pass. 1t
would seem also at first sight that on ac-
count of Port Royals magnificent harbor,
future connections with line of Northern
steamers is a possibility within the grasp of
the near future.

ATLANTA, GA, Nov. 19.-The Alabama
moonshiner is quite as lively as his Georgia
brother, judging from information received
at the revenue office here to-day. United
States Deputy Marshal Holden, of Wehad
ken, Randolph county, reports that few
nights ago, while he was at the United
States Court in Montgomery, incendiaries
set fire to his home and burned it to the
ground. His family was away at the time.
The incendiaries poured a quantity of oil
about the house before firing it. The house
was new, and the loss is $1,000. Mr. Hol-
den is satisfied that the incendiaries were
moonshiners
The Governor to-day changed the Arbor
day of Georgia, from the fourth Wednes-
2. The former day was found too
early for many sections, and was
Objectionable as holiday for the schools.
The change is made on recommendation of
G. r. Pringle, President of the American
Forestry Congress, and of the officials of the
Southern Forestry Congress. The Govern
ernor strongly recommends the observance
of the day by the people, and especially
municipal corporations and public schools.
Last spring in Chattahoochee Superior
Court James I. Gafford, of Cussela, Justice
of the Peace, was indicted and convicted of
malfeaSance in office in exacting excessive
costs. He was fined $25 and costs, and by
the operation of the law removed from
office and disqualified. He paid the fine
and lately a petition, signed by the Judge
and Solicitor General, the grand jury,
county officials and numerous citizens, was
presented to the Governor for pardon and
the removal of disabilities, which was
granted in an executive order to-day.

Parched by q Long Drought A High
Wind Blowing.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Nov. l9.-For the past
ten days forest fires have been raging all
around this section of the country and a
dense smoke has overhung the city. Re-
ports this afternoon are of serious nature.
Travel over the Kansas City road has been
temporarily suspended on account of
the fires. Great damage is
also reported to fences and
farm houses along the lines of the Louisville
and Nashville, Chesapeake and Ohio and
Southwestern, Mississippi and TIE Hnessee
and Louisville, New Orleans and Texas rail
roads, From these fires. A train on the
chesapeake and Ohio road which left here
last evening, was delayed several
hours north of this city owing
to the flames, which swept across
the track at various points. The greatest
danger is TO be feared from burned trestles
and bridges, and none of the trains on the
roads mentioned are running on schedule
time. The long continued drought which
has prevailed since July has literally dried
up the country.
STREAMS DRIED UP.
Navigation is in bad condition. Steamers
cannot find sufficient water even in the
Mississippi river to carry full cargoes, and
many of its tributaries to the South are
lower than were ever known to he before.
Steamboat men report that the sunken lands
near New Madrid, Mo, where extern
sive depressions were made in the
country by the earthquake of 1914,
and which have been since converted
into swamps and lakes, are now nearly dry
from the drought and low water in the
river, and vegetable matter and logs which
have long been buried thore have taken fire
and been burning for days. As a conse-
quence many square miles of that country
are on fire, which is burning out accumu-
lated plat and vegetable mold where it is dry
enough. Nothing of the kind has been
experienced for a great number of years,
according to the oldest inhabitants The
bottom lands of the Mississippi valley are
also on fire and considerable damage is be-
ing done to valuable timber Farm
ers in many instances have been
compelled to fight these fires to
save their gin houses from destruction
A high wind prevails tonight, which no
doubt will cause serious disaster Tee-
graphic communication TO points in
Arkansas is seriously interrupted, and
messages are received subject to DELAY. The
extent of these fires canno5 be estimated,
They cover large portions of Tennessee,

BURGAY'S SUICIDE.
A Belief That a Failure to Collect
Money Prompted 1t.

MACON, GA, Nov. 19.-New develop
ments in the Burgay suicide assign differ
ent reason for the act. The Coroner's Jury
held an inquest on the body to-day, and
returned verdict that he came to his death
from a pistol shot wound inflicted by his
own hand. 1t is the general belief now that
Mr.. Burgay killed himself because of finan-
cial troubles. He was a contractor on the
Atlanta and Hawkinsville road, and having
done considerable work for which he was
due by the company, about $4,000, went to
Atlanta a few days ago to try and get the
money, but failed to do so. 1t is said
that he is owing considerable money in
Macon which he expected to pay out of the
money received for his contract labor on
the Atlanta and Hawkinsville road and
rather than face his embarrasslnentS killed
himself. On Tuesday last a large ody of
hands in his employ stopped work at Knox
vile. He returned from Atlanta Thursday
night suffering terribly with nervous head
ache, for which complaint he had been
treated for some time by his family physi-
clan, DR.. Van Valkenberg. Early
yesterday morning on awakening
he asked his wife for
dose of medicine prescribed by the doctor
for headache He then went into an adj
joining room and laid down on a couch his
wife had prepared for him. She had also
made a fire in the room, closed the windows
and doors and went into the kitchen to get
his breakfast ready by the time he got up,
as he said he only wished to take an hours
rest. In a few moments she heard the re-
port of pistol, but thought it was some
one in the house throwing down something,
and she could not believe it had anything to
do with her husband until She
went to the room, opened the
door and saw him gasping for breath. She
then gave the alarm and the servants came.
DR. VanValkenberg made an examination
of the body. 1t was stripped in the presence
of the jury. The ball entered between the
fourth and fifth ribs on the right side and
came out just above the second rib ON the
left side, inflicting a mortal wound The
funeral of Mr.. Burgay will take place to-
morrow in Houston county.
